Paddy Long's Beer & Bacon Pub - Chicago, IL
Bacon-infused Bloody Mary's, anyone? Paddy Long's Beer & Bacon Pub in Chicago offers a real bacon-heavy menu, with bacon specialty appetizers and mains, plus beer and bacon tastings (5 cuts of bacon with 5 craft beers). The restaurant even offers a challenge to diners who dare to brave "The Bomb" (5-lb ground pork, beef and sausage wrapped in a brown sugar bacon weave and slow cooked on the pig roaster). If one person can finish it + a huge side of fries in 45 minutes or less, he or she earns a T-shirt, the meal for free and a spot on the wall of fame. Sounds like one heck of an artery-clogging challenge, but if you're a bacon fanatic, it might be doable. Otherwise, just take it easy and come for the "Wakin' Bacon Brunch" on the weekend.
